As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the audience showed strange expressions.
Xu Tong stood in front of Louis, and protested, "No, he's so thin, and the monster just appeared at the door. If you let him go out now, wouldn't that be sending him to his death?"
After Xu Tong said this, the space remained silent.
No one cares what someone says who doesn't have enough weight.
Although Xu Tong is Xu Da's granddaughter, this does not mean that Xu Tong has power or weight.
It’s just that others don’t dare to touch her because of Xu Da, but they will never be afraid of a girl.
It was more out of Xu Da's consideration.
Huang Shao also came back to his senses at this moment, but he still did not respond to Xu Tong's words. Instead, he looked at Xu Da.
Including the middle-aged woman who walked over, or Xu Tong, or Cheng Tao, everyone's eyes were unified at this moment, all focused on Xu Da.
Xu Da pondered for a moment.
No one knows what he is thinking.
He looked at Louis and was silent for a few seconds. "Young man, you can see that our situation is not good now. The shortage of supplies has caused everyone to be in danger. Although I have a certain say, you and I are strangers. To be honest, it is difficult for a clay Buddha to save himself when crossing the river. Don't blame me for being cruel."
"I......."
"Grandpa...Brother Lu is so delicate and fragile, he will definitely be targeted by monsters as soon as he goes out." Xu Tong pleaded for Lu Yi again.
Louis couldn't help but look at Xu Tong twice more.
This girl is kindhearted...
A pure heart is good.
However, in today's Internet society, she might be criticized as a saint, but for Louis now, it is a great help.
In this regard, Louis naturally would not waste the opportunity brought by Xu Tong's plea.
He immediately pretended to be sad, "Sister Xu Tong, forget it, I am sorry for disturbing you."
"Young man..." Xu Da seemed to be hesitant to speak. He glanced at Huang Shao and Cheng Tao, then looked at the middle-aged woman who shook her head at him, and his gaze finally fell on the innocent face of Xu Tong.
There was a hint of worry on his face.
This worry was not for Louis, but for Xu Tong. His granddaughter was still too naive. If he died, how would she survive?
The peaceful utopia has long gone, and the Black City is now filled with deception and conspiracy.
If he passed away, Xu Tong would probably not even know how he died.
Before that, he had to build his own team in the building, and at least make arrangements for Xu Tong's future.
Just as Xu Da's thoughts were in turmoil, a sound was heard in the corridor again.
"Grandpa Xu, Aunt Bai, Sister Tong, why are you all here? Is there a meeting going on?"
A childish girl's voice was heard in the corridor.
Suddenly, the originally tense atmosphere melted away instantly as if it was pricked by a needle.
"Hey, Xiaoduo, where is your father? Didn't he come down with you?" Xu Da immediately walked over and picked up the girl who was rubbing her eyes, holding a broken doll in her hands, and wearing a blue ruffled dress.
"Uncle Xu...I'm here."
A man's somewhat weak voice was heard from behind the girl.
Xu Da held the girl in his arms and slowly glanced up the corridor, only to see a man in a black leather jacket and trousers walking down the stairs step by step.
Looking at the man, Xu Da said, "You have dark circles under your eyes. You can't rest well recently. You will have to go out to collect supplies soon."
"I know, Uncle Xu, I'm just too tired."
"Go to sleep when you are tired."
"It's not physical fatigue, it's spiritual fatigue. This kind of fatigue makes me unable to sleep or eat well. I just feel that... is there really any meaning to our lingering life like this?"
The man was trembling all over. He leaned against the cold wall, exhaled a breath of hot air, and the pupils of his eyes trembled.
The air around them fell silent again.
No one spoke, as if everyone had fallen into silence.
Finally, Xu Da spoke.
"What are you thinking about? We are not lingering on. We still have hope. As long as we can hold on until the rescue team arrives, this hard time may be over."
This is a lie, even Xu Da himself didn't believe it.
But he used this lie to keep the faith of everyone in the building from collapsing.
Xu Da was tired and wanted to find a place to vent, but he couldn't.
Because he is the final cornerstone.
If he collapses, everyone here will die.
"Rescue team, rescue team, rescue team every day. It's been so long, and there's no sign of the rescue team."
"Damn it!" Huang Shao looked desperate, and finally kicked a chair angrily.
With a cracking sound, the chair was kicked to the ground.
"Huang Shao, that's enough. You are now destroying public facilities. You kicked the chair and broke it. From now on, you will have to stand still." Aunt Bai scolded mercilessly.
"Haha, you bitch, aren't you just using the things from your supermarket? You're just pretending. If Heicheng hadn't become such a mess, you'd be nothing." Huang Shao sneered nonchalantly.
He seemed to be completely enraged by Aunt Bai and simply started cursing.
"You have no food to eat tonight. If you keep scolding me, you won't have to eat tomorrow either." Aunt Bai sneered.
This sentence was like an imperial decree, and Huang Shao shut up instantly.
There was a trace of regret on his face, and he didn't know whether he was angry at himself for not being able to hold back, or angry at not having any food to eat tonight.
"Everyone, stop arguing...Brother Huang Shao, don't be afraid. I'll share half of Xiao Duo's meal with you tonight."
Xiaoduo called softly to Huang Shao.
Suddenly, Huang Shao's face froze, his nose felt a little sore, he covered his face with one hand, picked up the chair, and sat down on it.
At this moment, it seemed as if the original fear in his heart encountered a ray of light and was mostly dispelled.
But he has a sharp tongue, how could he possibly thank Xiaoduo?
He turned his face away stubbornly, "Who needs help from a little brat like you?"
"Isn't it just a meal? I'll just be hungry if I don't eat."
"I don't ask her for anything, you bitch, you're so hung up."
Aunt Bai's mouth twitched but she didn't say anything else.
She just glanced at Louis quietly, then looked at Xu Da.
Xu Da understood instantly.
He knew what Aunt Bai meant. She was asking him what to do with Louis.
Xu Da's move was to Cheng Tao.
Although Huang Shao is usually a bit domineering, he is not ignorant of his own limitations. He is obviously being manipulated by someone with ulterior motives.
Although Cheng Tao followed behind Huang Shao and didn't say anything, it didn't mean that the other party was out of the matter.
On the contrary, Huang Shao’s trouble was probably caused by Cheng Tao.
In other words, Cheng Tao doesn't want to have one more person in the building, right?
"Let's just do this."
Xu Da glanced around the room, then walked to a bell and rang it.
"Open, everyone vote."
